DWF head of banking litigation Andrew Breckenridge has joined Leeds firm Gordons as a partner in its commercial litigation team.
He joins Gordons after more than seven years at DWF as head of banking disputes.
Gordons senior partner John Holden said: “Andrew is an outstanding lawyer with an instinctive ability to provide clients with clarity amongst the complexity of banking litigation. He has an excellent reputation regionally and nationally, combined with a real desire to further grow our strong commercial litigation service.”
DWF has seen 18 months of rapid expansion outside of the UK, including a series of mergers and its first office in France through a tie-up with four-partner Heenan Paris.
The firm also recently merged with 20-partner Belfast-based C&H Jefferson in November, and acquired German commercial boutique BridgehouseLaw in late 2015.
